Even with the monitoring query argument left aside, I agree that there
are more upsides to not list them as deprecated for now, based on the
reason that xid is still a data type in some catalogs, like pg_class's
relfrozenxid and relminmxid. Note as well that we've used them in
vacuumdb.

In short, your suggestion makes sense to me. Any thoughts or comments
from others?
